Welcome!

Welcome to my blog about hockey - mainly about the Buffalo Sabres. Here you'll find my thoughts and opinions about the game of hockey. There will be times where I'll stray off-topic and I'll post about other things that I feel the need to blog about, but for the most part this is my blog for hockey. I hope you enjoy reading!

Who am I?

Hi! My name is Caroline. I'm a recent college grad (Public Communication) from Buffalo, NY. I enjoy traveling, hockey, photography, bike rides, theatre, movies, music, and just spending time with my family and friends. And the occasional blogging of course.

Still in 8th

Another game, another missed opportunity. I don't have much to say except I thought Jochen Hecht was absolutely terrible. Just awful. A very frustrating loss because we were in the game the entire night and we really had a good chance at coming out with 2 points. We didn't play terrible, but a few bad mistakes and stupidity cost them the game. Very frustrating. Fortunately, the teams that we needed to lose did just that...except for Carolina but they were playing the embarrassment that is the New York Islanders so that's just a given. So...we're in 8th place still. We didn't lose any ground but we didn't gain any. And with teams creeping up behind us that is just very annoying.

But you know what is making me feel better? You know how I said that I enjoy watching other teams crash and burn worse than the Sabres? Well, up in Montreal it's a real shit show. We've all seen the drunk pictures of select members of the team, but apparently things are getting worse. There's an uncomfirmed report floating around that there are more pictures about to be leaked that will cause more controversy. I've been browsing through some Habs message boards and some rumors are saying that the police are waiting at the airport for the Habs to land so they can arrest 3 players (apparently it's Price, Gorges, and Higgins). NOW BEFORE WE JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS, we must realize that this is Montreal that we're talking about and the media up there is batshit crazy. This all might be blown wayyyy out of proportion, because we all know much the media loves to do that. Apparently it just involves some of the players knowing a drug dealer. Disappointing.

But until we find out that this is a whole lot of nothing, I am going to sit here and add fuel to the fire and speculate on what I want it to it could be. I'm betting it involves a hooker, a gay midget stripper, and some booze and some blow. There may or may not be a picture of a huge gay hockey player orgy. I am only speculating here, folks. But if I am right I think you should all take me out and buy me a few rounds. Screw this if it's only about some players being involved with a drug dealer and maybe some organized crime. Booorringgg.

Apparently the brothers Kostitsyn were very close with a Montreal mobster. He had access to their credit cards & did shopping for them and they would call him when they needed anything from vodka to women. Not as salacious as gay midget orgies, but not a good position to be putting yourelf and your team in. Makes falling down drunk & half sandal-less on Chippewa seem pretty tame...

Adding onto what Jay said - the Habs DID send down Sergei Kostitsyn even though he's been playing very well for the Habs and has a lot of points. May his sending down have something to do with them being close with a Montreal mobster?

Ahhh, what a wonderful sight to see in Montreal during their anniversary.

Ohhh... maybe this is why they are sitting Kovalev (sp?) because he is tired (HA!)... maybe he really isn't tired maybe he is involved some how and they are trying to get him some help? Or maybe he tested positive for something? I dunno...

Yeah who knows...I'm sure there's tons of conspiracy theories going on. I've heard people saying that they think that some of the Habs were throwing games because they were involved with the mob. Who needs celebrity gossip when you've got the crazy media up in Montreal...

Oh man you're in for a real treat...it's pretty crazy. Have you seen the hilarious pictures of various players partying? They're pretty priceless. Well not really priceless since Carey Price is in the photos...but you know what I mean.

WOW! Insane. At least are players are acting respectable of the ice. That is until Ryan Miller does something absolutely batshitty just to prove me wrong.

hahaha exactly like robbing a bank. You know Miller seems like one never to be upstaged, so if he was going to break the law, he's going to go all out and rob a bank. The players in Montreal have nothing on Miller after he goes batshit and robs a bank.... haha.
